Food Diary....

A few people had asked me what I usually eat on the plan.

I have kept a note of what I have ate Tuesday - Friday as an example, and my HE's and breakfast is always pretty much the same however this can change depending on how much time I have, what food I have in the house and what I am doing in life!


Tuesday

Breakfast - 2 rocky road Hi-Fi bars, orange and a cup of tea

Lunch - Mugshot, Muller light yogurt and 2 oranges

Snack after work - 2 slices of toast (small brown bread) and Philadelphia (HEa and HEb)

Dinner - 2 fried eggs and chips.  Pineapple and mixed berries to follow.


Syns used - Hi Fi bars (6), milk (1.5) = 7.5 syns


Wednesday

So there we go! Nothing too spectacular or out of the ordinary.  I tend to not use my 10 syns per day as I don't really need them, and keep a few so I can have a few glasses of wine or nice bag of crisps at the weekend as a treat (or in this case I have a Halloween party so have saved up 11.5 from week plus 20 syns from weekend so have 30ish syns to have a good few wee drinks if I so wish!)

This was my first time trying this, and it was yummy!!! I would make a few wee changes though, so will make this again later in the week and blog the process :)

ROTD - Slimming World Quiche

So for my first Recipe of the Day (ROTD) I decided to make a quiche.  If you search on forums there are hundreds of variations for this, but I decided to just go for the most basic recipe.  As I did not use 'fat free' cottage cheese - because the shop didn't have any - then this will be syned as 9, but usually this will be free on Extra Easy if you used Fat free.

Disclaimer - Where the lights are in my kitchen, it caused a shadow, so the photos aren't the best.


Ingredients

3 eggs

300g low fat cottage cheese

3 rashers of bacon

1 pepper

onions

mushrooms 

sliced tomato for top

35g of cheese (HEa)

Method

Chop up vegetables (use whatever you like) and cut up bacon.  Pop in frying pan for a few minutes to partially cook and soften.

 Mix eggs and cottage cheese in a bowl.  Mine was quite lumpy, so I took the blender to it!

                                    

Add veg and bacon to egg and cottage cheese mix.  Mix together and put into pan or individual muffin tins.  Top with cheese and tomato.

Pop in oven at around 150C for 30 minutes or until it looks ready. (I didn't pre-heat oven as I forgot!)

And.....

It looked pretty good!!!  Because of the size of my tin, it ended up quite thin as it obviously spread out. But when cut, the structure held well.

The Verdict

It tasted pretty good!!! And I managed to consume half of it for lunch!!

Has anyone else made SW quiche?
